Shadow,

I knew what you meant and it wasn't directed to you when I was talking about people buying new bows every year, more like in general terms that seems to be the trend.

When it comes to older bows I too have a cut off. More like a technology cut off if you get my drift. Some of the older compounds were very bad designs and aren't reliable at all. But if its within the last 10-15 years and has a solid design I have no problem buying it. Most I sell but I am allways looking for a good backup bow.
